!The Challenge

Bringing real-world gold assets onto the blockchain required solving custody verification, proof of reserves, and regulatory compliance while maintaining full decentralization.

Our Solution

We developed a gold-backed token where each token is backed 1:1 by audited physical gold reserves from a registered Peruvian mining concession. On-chain proof of reserves uses Chainlink oracles linked to custodian audit reports (PeckShield & CertiK audited). The DeFi platform enables staking, lending, and yield generation against gold-backed collateral.

Key Features

1:1 gold-backed token with on-chain proof of reserves
CertiK and PeckShield smart contract audits
Real mining concession (INGEMMET registered, Peru)
Integrated DeFi platform for staking and yield on RWA
Multi-language platform (English, Spanish)
Institutional investment tier with dedicated tokenomics

Results & Impact

11:1 gold-backed token with verifiable reserve proof
2Dual audit certification (PeckShield + CertiK)
3Listed on Uniswap and CoinMarketCap
4Regulatory-compliant tokenization under BVI law

Overview

Ayni Gold links blockchain technology with real-world gold mining operations in Peru. Smart contracts transparently record operational data from Minerales San Hilario mining operations, with all key information publicly verifiable. Each AYNI token is backed by audited physical gold reserves.

The Challenge

Bringing real-world gold assets onto the blockchain required solving custody verification, proof of reserves, and regulatory compliance while maintaining full decentralization. The project needed to bridge the trust gap between physical mining operations and digital token holders.

Our Solution

We developed a gold-backed token where each token is backed 1:1 by audited physical gold reserves from a registered Peruvian mining concession. On-chain proof of reserves uses Chainlink oracles linked to custodian audit reports (PeckShield & CertiK audited). The DeFi platform enables staking, lending, and yield generation against gold-backed collateral, with full tokenomics including institutional offerings.

Key Features

  • 1:1 gold-backed token with on-chain proof of reserves
  • CertiK and PeckShield smart contract audits
  • Real mining concession (INGEMMET registered, Peru)
  • Integrated DeFi platform for staking and yield on RWA
  • Multi-language platform (English, Spanish)
  • Institutional investment tier with dedicated tokenomics

Results & Impact

  • 1:1 gold-backed token with verifiable reserve proof
  • Dual audit certification (PeckShield + CertiK)
  • Listed on Uniswap and CoinMarketCap
  • Regulatory-compliant tokenization under BVI law

Technical Architecture

The Ayni Gold platform implements a sophisticated RWA tokenization architecture. The AyniToken contract extends ERC-20 with an integrated proof-of-reserves module that queries Chainlink oracles connected to custodian audit APIs. Reserve attestations are published on-chain at configurable intervals.

The DeFi layer enables token holders to stake their gold-backed AYNI tokens for yield, participate in lending pools, and access institutional-grade liquidity.
